Absolute Link

What is an Absolute Link?

An absolute link or URL is a complete web address that includes:

  • protocol (HTTP or HTTPS)

  • an optional subdomain (like www)

  • domain

  • path (which may include the directory and slug)

Let's take the example of SEOdebate. The absolute URL or link is https://seodebate.com.

Similarly, for this post, the absolute URL is "https://seodebate.com/articles/absolute-link/". Here you can see the protocol, domain, and path.

This URL contains enough information for a browser to find a webpage, regardless of the context.
